Cool Hiya

Can anyone recommend some good crossword/word puzzle solver sites?

Currently I use ojohaven.com for simple searches when I have some of the letters and oneacross.com for clue searches. Is there any other sites that could be of use (apart from this one!!)

Cheers

Snicks

Hi Snicksnacknicerack

Welcome you will find this a very helpful site. I sometimes use jumble.org/ as they also give meanings of the word which helps to confirm.
All the best

Hi Snicksnacknicerack,

Welcome to A2K, it's nice to meet you Smile

The site Dutchy recommended (www.onelook.com), also has a great reverse dictionary feature that can be very useful when trying to solve hard clues.

Hope this helps.
